SailWith.Net is a social platform and information you upload or post to SailWith.Net may be publicly viewable and searchable by SailWith.Net members and non-members.
We aggregate certain information about our members' use of the Services for business purposes and we sometimes publish that information or share it with others.
We give you several ways to control what information is shared with others and the public and are continuously working to enhance privacy options available to you.

Our privacy policy (the "Privacy Policy") explains the information we collect, how we use and share it, how to manage your privacy controls and your rights in connection with the Services. Please also read our Terms of Service which sets out the terms governing the Services.

How SailWith.Net Uses Information

SailWith.Net uses the information we collect and receive to administer and operate the Services and to customize them for you. For example, we use your wind sensor information to provide you with interesting and useful performance analysis. Subject to your privacy controls, your information, including your profile, username, photos, members you follow and who follow you, clubs you belong to, your activities, the devices you use, and kudos and comments you give and receive will be shared on SailWith.Net so that you may be able to participate in the Services, for example to show your place on a leaderboard. Certain information (e.g., your name and some profile information) may also be available to non-members on the web. Your precise location information, such as a route or segment, may also be shared on SailWith.Net or to non-members, in accordance with your privacy controls.

We use the information we collect about you, your followers, and your activities to customize your experience. We also use the information we collect to process payments, provide support related to the Services, protect members and enforce our Terms of Service, promote safety, and to communicate with you (including to send marketing communications) where you have agreed to receive such messages and notifications.

We also use the information we collect to analyze, develop and improve the Services.

We may also use the information we collect to market and promote the Services, activities on SailWith.Net, and other commercial products or services. This includes customizing your SailWith.Net experience. For example, if we know that you like to race, we may tell you about new racing activities or show you sponsored content related to racing. If we see that you run in a certain area, we may suggest a race in that area. We may also mention that you have used our partners' products or services as part of your activities, which we refer to as Sponsored Integrations.

SailWith.Net may aggregate the information you and others make available in connection with the Services and post it publicly or share it with third parties. To do this, we remove certain account information, such as your name, and combine the resulting information with similar information from other SailWith.Net athletes. Examples of the type of information we may aggregate in this way include information about equipment, usage, demographics, routes and performance. SailWith.Net may use, sell, license, and share this information with third parties for research, business or other purposes such as to help our partners understand more about athletes, including the people who use their products and services.

How Information is Shared

In addition to sharing aggregated data about our members as described above, we also share information that identifies you in accordance with your preferences, as needed to run our business and provide the Services, and where required for legal purposes, as set forth below.

Service Providers

We may share your information with third parties who provide services to SailWith.Net such as supporting and improving the Services, promoting the Services, processing payments, or fulfilling orders. These service providers will only have access to the information necessary to perform these limited functions on our behalf and are required to protect and secure your information. We may also engage service providers to collect information about your use of the Services over time on our behalf so that we or they may promote SailWith.Net or display information that may be relevant to your interests on the Services or other websites or services.

Publicly Available Information

Your information and content may be publicly accessible to and searchable by other SailWith.Net members and non-members. We provide a variety of tools to control the sharing of your information.

Affiliates and Acquirors of our Business or Assets

We may share your information with affiliates under common control with us, who are required to comply with the terms of this Privacy Policy with regard to your information. If SailWith.Net becomes involved in a business combination, securities offering, bankruptcy, reorganization, dissolution or other similar transaction, we may share or transfer your information in connection with such transaction.

Legal Requirements

We may preserve and share your information with third parties, including law enforcement, public or governmental agencies, or private litigants, within or outside your country of residence, if we determine that such disclosure is allowed by the law or reasonably necessary to comply with the law, including to respond to court orders, warrants, subpoenas, or other legal or regulatory process. We may also retain, preserve or disclose your information if we determine that disclosure is reasonably necessary or appropriate to prevent any person from death or serious bodily injury, to address issues of national security or other issues of public importance, to prevent or detect violations of our Terms of Service or fraud or abuse of SailWith.Net or its members, or to protect our operations or our property or other legal rights, including by disclosure to our legal counsel and other consultants and third parties in connection with actual or potential litigation.

How We Protect Information

We take several measures to safeguard the collection, transmission and storage of the data we collect. Although we strive to employ reasonable protections for your information that are appropriate to its sensitivity, we do not guarantee or warrant the security of the information you share with us and we are not responsible for the theft, destruction, loss or inadvertent disclosure of your information or content. No system is 100% secure. The Services use industry standard Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) technology to allow for the encryption of personal information and credit card numbers. SailWith.Net engages providers that are industry leaders in online security, including Services verification, to strengthen the security of our Services. The Services are registered with site identification authorities so that your browser can confirm SailWith.Net's identity before any personal information is sent. In addition, SailWith.Net's secure servers protect this information using advanced firewall technology.

To help ensure that these measures are effective in preventing unauthorized access to your private information, you should be aware of the security features available to you through your browser. You should use a security-enabled browser to submit your credit card information and other personal information at the Services. Please note that if you do not use a SSL-capable browser, you are at risk for having data intercepted.

Most browsers have the ability to notify you if you change between secure and insecure communications, receive invalid services identification information for the Services you are communicating with, or send information over an unsecured connection. SailWith.Net recommends that you enable these browser functions to help ensure that your communications are secure. You can also monitor the URL of the services you are visiting (secure URLs begin with https:// rather than http://), along with the security symbol of your browser to help identify when you are communicating with a secure server. You can also view the details of the security certificate of the services to which you are connected. Please check the validity of any Services you connect to using secure communications.

Disclaimer

While SailWith.Net continues to work hard to protect your personal information, no data transmission over the Internet can be guaranteed to be absolutely secure, and SailWith.Net cannot ensure or warrant the security of any information you transmit to SailWith.Net. Transmitting personal information is done at your own risk.

Managing Your Settings

Privacy Controls

SailWith.Net offers several features and settings to help you manage your privacy and how you share your activities. Privacy controls are located in your profile page, but some are specific to individual activities or athletes. SailWith.Net provides you the option to make your activities private.

Any administrative or service-related emails (to confirm a purchase, or an update to this Privacy Policy or our Terms of Service, etc.) generally do not offer an option to unsubscribe as they are necessary to provide the Services you requested.

Updating Account Information

You may correct, amend or update profile or account information at any time by adjusting that information in your account settings.

Deleting Information and Accounts

To request that your account is deleted, contact us here. Once deleted, your data, including your account, activities and place on leaderboards cannot be reinstated.

Note that content you have shared with others, such as photos, or that others have copied may also remain visible after you have deleted your account or deleted specific information from your own profile. Your public profile may be displayed in search engine results until the search engine refreshes its cache.

SailWith.Net also provides you the option to remove individual activities you have posted from view on the Services without deleting your account.

EU Members' Rights

If you are habitually located in the European Union, you have the right to access, rectify, download or erase your information, as well as the right to restrict and object to certain processing of your information.

In such cases, we will cease processing your information unless we have compelling legitimate grounds to continue processing or where it is needed for legal reasons.

Complain

Should you wish to raise a concern about our use of your information (and without prejudice to any other rights you may have), you have the right to do so with your local supervisory authority.

Transfers

The Services are operated from the Europe Union. If you are located outside of the EU and choose to use the Services or provide information to us, you acknowledge and understand that your information will be transferred, processed and stored in the EU, as it is necessary to provide the Services and perform the Terms of Service. EU privacy laws may not be as protective as those in your jurisdiction.

We retain information as long as it is necessary to provide the Services to you and others, subject to any legal obligations to further retain such information. Information associated with your account will generally be kept until it is no longer necessary to provide the Services or until your account is deleted.

The information we retain will be handled in accordance with this Privacy Policy.

Information about you that is no longer necessary and relevant to provide our Services may be de-identified or aggregated with other non-personal data to provide insights which are commercially valuable to SailWith.Net, such as statistics of the use of the Services. For example, we may retain publicly available routes and other depersonalized geolocation information to continue to improve the Services. This information will be de-associated with your name and other identifiers.
